Calgary Mayor Naheed Nenshi was the key note speaker at an Ottawa City Hall event in which he said it was time to have a “thoughtful conversation about the importance of our energy sector”.
At a time when progressives in Central Canada are speaking out against pipelines and against our resource sector, Nenshi gave a surprisingly pro oil industry speech so I wanted to bring you a significant portion of his remarks.

Is his and Notely’s ‘sudden’ consideration just paving the way for their nationalization plan? The first step was to break the industry altogether, and the next step is for them to rebuild it into their twisted vision.
Completely rude of him to cut Brian off. The question was a good one. Had Nenshi allowed Brian to get it out he probably would have answered it. He made himself look foolish.
The next time we kick out the Liberals let’s make sure they do not have a seat. We were close last time. Lets finished the job this time..
I will give him credit and would live to see Butts and Suzuki face right now.
We need left wing advocates for the oil and gas industry, because the left just dismisses any arguments made from conservatives.
thank you, Mr. Mayor… this was a well-timed and well done presentation.
Danielle Smith didn’t do to badly either. She speaks for Albertans while Ms. Notley seems unwilling to do so:

Funny how we have two unelected officials looking out for the best interests of Alberta and Canada, while the lower case premier and p.m. talk about the weather.
P.S. Nenshi also needs to present this speech to Premier Nutley!
Can a true statesman build one farookin’ pipeline? And git ‘er done?
We should be exporting this shit as fast as we can pull it out of the ground.
Canada produces 5% of world output currently.
We should be at 10 or even 20%.
Let’s kick ass on everybody else.
Make OPEC the little guys.
p.s.
The carbon footprint scare is a hoax.
Actually the more CO2 in the atmosphere, the greener the planet becomes.
